Presidency of George W. Bush

“The fundamental characteristic of the Constitution is distrust.” A statement, if nothing else, as bold as the Framers who lead the revolution. As petrifying as the statement is, it is true. The framers feared a repeat of history, and rightfully so, because many governments had quickly risen and fallen equally as fast. As a result, distrust was what powered the writing of the United States’ Constitution. This has been known since as early as November 22, 1787, when the Federalist paper: #10…

herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives.” Nevertheless, the Supreme Court used this Article to its advantage in deeming the recount unconstitutional and giving George W. Bush the…

in 2014 and Bush in 2006. On a scale of 0% to 90%, indicating a high no confidence to high confidence.

great things, but those were disguised by the scandal that surrounded his presidency. My last insight is that although the Watergate Scandal mostly rocked this time period, there was several other illegal actions that took place that are talked about as much in history classes.

Montana. Miley has been spotted partaking in lude sexual suggestive acts on and off live television and even dabbling in recreational drugs. By saying that she was still “Hannah Montana when bush was president” also gives a comical tone from the view point of audience members who saw former president George W.

Since bigger states have more votes, it would make sense that they should have a bigger impact in the Electoral College, but they have a smaller impact in comparison.

Bush is one of the presidents who opposed to the state because he didn’t want to recognize the domestic policy issue that was occurring during that time. That wasn’t the only thing that George W. Bush tried to overlooked he even ignored border control assistance, terrorism funding and agriculture. Despite this there are still presidents that…
